Montones is a surf spot located on the north coast of Puerto Rico. It’s known for its consistent surf and is a popular spot among local surfers. The beach is fairly scenic, and while it can get crowded, it’s definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.

The waves here are primarily reef breaks that can produce hollow sections, making it a fun place for surfers looking for a challenge. Montones handles swell sizes from about 2ft (0.6 meters) and works best with swells coming from the north or the northwest, as well as from the northeast. Surfers can enjoy both left and right breaking waves, but it’s best suited for intermediate surfers. For the best experience, aim for low to mid or high tides, and keep an eye on the wind direction; south winds are preferable as they provide better conditions.

The uneven reef adds an interesting dynamic to the surf, which means you need to be aware of your surroundings. If you’re looking for something that has a bit of unpredictability and excitement, Montones could be a solid choice when the conditions align.
